Adonis vernalis, commonly known as pheasant’s eye, false Hellebore, yellow pheasant’s eye, and spring pheasant’s eye, is a perennial plant in the Ranunculaceae (buttercups) family.
It occurs in the dry grasslands and steppes of Western Asia and the Mediterranean. The genus Adonis includes 32 species[1]. The name pheasant’s eye refers to the similarity between the colors of its flowers and a pheasant’s red-eye.
